This is not the first time Mr. Baker has done this. But it is one of the most widely-known retriever losses. RTF members pulled together law enforcement, TV and Radio media connections, all to get some resolution in the disappearance of Boz, a 10 year old labrador, taken from his owner's dog truck in a hotel parking lot at night.

While Boz was not recovered alive, the culprit was caught and is being dealt with in our justice system.

Mr. Baker, aka, the "Gooser", offered up one of his true pieces of art - a handmade, dovetail-jointed urn. Here's Mike's Spalted maple with contrasting black walnut gift to Jamie Arthur. This can never bring Boz back, but it is an example of the kind of generosity that exists among the majority of RTF users - GOOD folks who want to pay it forward.

MooseGooser's woodworking business is the latest new sponsor on the RTF site. His banner will be appearing in the future.
